The Scent of Linden
The memory of gathering under the sweet scent of flowering linden trees and the warmth of the sun at the end of May.
Used for drying linden, my old crates are in very good company.
In the coolness of the old walls, a late afternoon, enjoy this moment to savor iced linden tea.

Linden perfume was my most favorite scent....I was purchasing it from L'Occitane....but then they stopped making the perfume! .....and I was just about to make it my "signature fragrance"! Does anyone know if it is produced as a perfume? Your photographs are beautiful and I should love to have a sip of iced tea with my favorite floral scent...it must taste delicious!
Take care,Laura
And so I felt in love again with your beautiful lightful pictures... :) and thank you very much for setting a link to my page, I am very happy about that, because I like your page so much. At the moment I am sitting here in my holiday home in Danmark... maybe the next will be in France? Lots of greetings, maren
Laura,
A French company, Côté Bastide, www.cotebastide.com offers a line of fragrances called "Tilleul." Perhaps you can locate a stateside store that sells Côté Bastide. "Tilleul" is the French word for "Linden" and not "Lime tree" as some translators believe (even on their website translation, Côté Bastide uses the "Lime Tree." I recently bought Côté Bastide Tilleul bath gel at Hotel Saint Cecilia in Austin, Texas, USA, where I was doing a shoot for my blog. The gel is heavenly and reminds me of the fragrance of Honeysuckle.
Good luck is finding your Linden scent.

I will have to check into linden tea; perhaps my german aunt has heard of it. It sounds refreshing! I always enjoy your pictures
My Linden trees are blooming as well - buzzing with bees. I've never made the tea from them. You have inspired me to try.
Cheers!
